oh.. and what kind of glue if i'm using paper or material?

I'd use fabric, I think that'd be really pretty. I'm not much help with the glue... super glue? You'd have to be careful where you put it.

Fabric. I'd use a spray adhesive of some sort.

but how do i make it not wrinkly?? cut the material perfectly and fold it onto the bottom and over the top on the inside of the box? and somehow make it look perfect on the top? ah!

Like you would fabric wrap a basket (that's what we are doing for the flower girl baskets).
Spray the adhesive onto the bottom and pull the fabric tight so the bottom is set. Then fold in pleats and go into the box with the fabric. glue the fabric down on the floor of the box & then cut and fold the edges of a center piece of fabric to lay inside so the bottom (inside) looks complete....

Bring it on Saturday and I'll show you what I would likely do with it.
